Intern Backend Software Engineer Fall/Winter 2025 (contracting)
Build the AI-powered operating system for electric fleet transformation at scale
đź“Ť Brazil | Remote (full time) | BRL 93,600 per year
About 7Gen
At 7Gen, our mission is to accelerate the transition to zero-emission transportation, not just for today but for the generations to come. Inspired by the 7th Generation Principle, we help companies make meaningful, lasting shifts toward cleaner mobility by removing the complexity from fleet electrification.
Our leadership brings deep operational expertise from Bain, BCG, Smit Towage/Royal Boskalis, Schneider Electric, Element, and GE Capital. Our CEO, CTO and COO are serial entrepreneurs who have founded and scaled companies before—they understand what it takes to build from zero to one and beyond. We're here to build real-world momentum toward a cleaner transportation future, one vehicle, one route, and one customer at a time.
The Vision
We work with growing small and mid-sized businesses (SMBs), including the plumbers, caterers, HVAC technicians, and distributors who while making up the backbone of the economy have historically been left out of the EV transition. We're changing that by building tools and services that make electrification a competitive advantage, not a burden.
Our EV-as-a-Service model bundles everything fleets need into one scalable, tailored offering: vehicles, charging infrastructure, financing, and intuitive software. It's built to be flexible, capital-efficient, and easy to operate.
Your Impact
You will be at the core of a massive effort to make electrification easier, cheaper and more reliable for small and medium businesses through software and AI. These levers will become the engines that unlock efficiency, savings and confidence turning EVs into a competitive advantage for companies.
Working directly with our CTO (former Associate Director of Machine Learning at BCG and serial entrepreneur), you'll build backend APIs and event streaming infrastructure that processes millions of data points from EVs, batteries, and charging networks to deliver actionable intelligence.
When a Montreal plumbing company saves $12,000 annually through optimized routing, or when a local caterer discovers their ideal vehicle mix cuts costs by 30%, that's your code creating real business value while reducing emissions and helping contribute to a better climate.
In this role, you will

We encourage you to apply even if you don't meet every qualification. Research shows that people from underrepresented groups often underestimate their candidacy. We're building technology with significant environmental and social impact—diverse perspectives make us stronger.
